parent/guardian in the family. The parent/guardian must submit verification of self-employment, including all supporting
verification of self-employment income, as required at the time of initial application and at each subsequent
redetermination.
Self Employment Requirements:
If you are paid in cash or check and your employer does not take out your taxes or if you are operating your
own business, then you are considered to be self-employed. Due to clarification you now need to submit the
following verification at each redetermination:
